    Car to be at auction 7/16
    www.coys.co.uk/cars/1962-jaguar-e-type-series-1-3-8-roadster

    Auction description:
    ESTIMATE £120,000-£140,000
    Auction 2016 Blenheim Palace
    Lot Number 178
    Reg. Number UK Registered
    Chassis Number 850439
    Year 1962
    Make Jaguar
    Model E-Type Series 1

    Manufactured in 1962, this original right hand drive 'Series 1' was supplied new via Jaguar Cars, and has always remained in the UK. In its last ownership for over two decades this particular series one roadster is finished in its original Body colour of gun metal. The car was restored some 25 years ago , and can still only be described as in excellent general condition. This wonderful example is certainly worthy of closer inspection.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
